[PATCH 2/7] ip-pool: Add subnet address selection logic

[Andrew Zaborowski]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 7792 bytes --]

Add the ip_pool_select_addr4 function to select a random subnet of requested
size from an address space defined by a string list (for use with the
AP profile [IPv4].Address and the global [IPv4].APAddressPool settings),
avoiding those subnets that conflict with subnets in use.  We take care
to give a similar weight to all subnets contained in the specified
ranges regardless of how many ranges contain each, basically so that
overlapping ranges don't affect the probabilities (debatable.)

[PATCH 3/7] ap: Refactor DHCP settings loading

[Andrew Zaborowski]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 18288 bytes --]

Extend the [IPv4].Address setting's syntax to allow a new format: a list
of <IP>/<prefix_len> -form strings that define the address space from
which a subnet is selected.  Rewrite the DHCP settings loading with
other notable changes:

 * validate some of the settings more thoroughly,
 * name all netconfig-related ap_state members with the netconfig_
   prefix,
 * make sure we always call l_dhcp_server_set_netmask(),
 * allow netmasks other than 24-bit and change the default to 28 bits,
 * as requested avoid using the l_net_ ioctl-based functions although
   l_dhcp still uses them internally,
 * as requested avoid touching the ap_state members until the end of
   some functions so that on error they're basically a no-op (for
   readabaility).

[PATCH 4/7] ap: Refactor global address pool loading

[Andrew Zaborowski]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 7749 bytes --]

Deprecate the global [General].APRanges setting in favour of
[IPv4].APAddressPool with an extended (but backwards-compatible) syntax.
Drop the existing address pool creation code.

The new APAddressPool setting has the same syntax as the profile-local
[IPv4].Address setting and the subnet selection code will fall back
to the global setting if it's missing, this way we use common code to
handle both settings.

[PATCH 5/7] ap: Send a specific error message on async AP start failure

[Andrew Zaborowski]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3543 bytes --]

We generate the DBus error reply type from the errno only when
ap_start() was failing synchronously, now also send the errno through
the callbacks so that we can also return a specific DBus reply when
failing asynchronously.  Thea AP autotest relies on receiving the
AlreadyExists DBus error.

[PATCH 6/7] autotests: Update APRanges usage in testAP

[Andrew Zaborowski]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2087 bytes --]

[General].APRange is now [IPv4].APAddressPool and the netmask is changed
from 23 to 27 bits to make the test correctly assert that only two
default-sized subnets are allowed by IWD simultaneously (default has
changed from 24 to 28 bits)

Is there a strong reason for making this tighly-coupled to netdev?  I mean in 
theory ip-pool can be reused by netconfig for example, which also tracks IPv4/v6 
addresses (for some unknown reason, but one thing at a time...)

Is there a compelling reason to use a dedicated structure (leaking 
implementation details) instead of returning a newly allocated l_rtnl_address 
instead?

This function is used exactly once, when the profile is loaded.  So it isn't 
exactly on the hot-path where raw access to the store is needed.

Similarly to previous patch, do we really need the netdev object here?

Also, what is 'prefix'?  It looks like it is used to convey the desired prefix 
length size.  So should it be named appropriately?  Maybe target_prefix_len?

Do you really need the netdev argument? It looks like it is used to skip adding 
that netdev's addresses to the 'used' list.  Why?  How likely is this to happen? 
  Can't we just leave those alone and assign a new subnet regardless? Or have AP 
wipe the addresses first?

Oh, and another thing.  Can this just return us an l_rtnl_address? The 
address/prefix is known and that is basically all you need for the 
l_rtnl_address object. That way it can be used directly in l_rtnl_ifaddr_add / 
delete functions.

Other than convenience, no.

That shouldn't be a problem but ok, I'll drop the netdev usage.

Again, convenience, readability, better fit for the use case.  But
like I said I can move to using l_rtnl_address, I didn't do it this
time because it sounded like I convinced you against it.  I'll switch
to l_rtnl_address though.

Using l_rtnl_address here is like using a class for a simple integer
or boolean value (Java style), I wouldn't call directly accessing the
actual value "leaking implementation details."

Sure, we can drop this functionality.  It sounded like a correct thing
to do but if there's a problem with it I can drop it.  Note we'll save
exactly 3 non-empty-non-comment lines of code.

Now that would be trading an integer comparison (the ifindex check..)
for a multi-step asynchronous operation with cancellation, error
checks, etc., I wouldn't do this to save that one argument.

netconfig depends on netdev right now, but it really shouldn't.  The only reason 
is that it needs the device name, which really belongs elsewhere since netconfig 
will end up being used by ead, which will not even come with netconfig module at 
all.

So the looser you make this coupling, the easier it will be for us to reuse this 
stuff in other projects.  Start thinking along those lines please.

readability? Yeah I don't buy that one ;)  You were doing stuff like storing the 
ip address in host order for whatever reason.  And you expect someone reading 
ap.c to remember / know that?

I'm fine if you use a custom type inside ip-pool for ease of implementation, but 
you should make the public API 'nice'.

You're returning a const struct foo * back, which basically screams 'I'm sending 
internal details out'.  Also see my comment about host/network ordering.

If you think l_rtnl_address isn't suitable for whatever reason, then lets fix 
that instead.

Whoops, s/netconfig/netdev

So that last line should read ... netdev module ...

If you can write
  ret_val = ip_pool_select_addr4(...);

  do_some_maths(ret_val->addr)

instead of:

  struct in_addr ia;
  char addr[INET_ADDRSTRLEN];

  ret_val = ip_pool_select_addr4(...);

  if (!l_rtnl_address_get_address(ret_val, addr) || inet_aton(addr, &ia) < 0) {
        l_rtnl_address_free(ret_val);
        goto error;
  }

  do_some_maths(ntohl(ia.s_addr));

I call that readable vs. unreadable ;-)

Whenever you're going to store the IP as an uint32_t (rather than e.g.
in_addr) it's probably because you want to do some arithmetics and
you'll want the host byte order.

Besides you can generally assume that a plain integer variable is in
host byte order.

What maths are you performing and why?

The whole point of the API is to have the caller request an address/prefix combo 
that can be set directly on the interface and the dhcp_server object.  If you're 
doing any maths afterward, your API has failed, no?

And I would question the entire design?

For a uint32 that is called 'addr' coming from a module called ip_pool?  I would 
assume the opposite.  Hence, for a public API, just don't do it this way.

Outside of ip_pool_select_addr4() itself (which will suffer internally
too), there's some broadcast_from_ip() for example.

But fair enough that should go away if we switch to
l_rtnl_ifaddr_add() (But again this is a change out of the scope of
this patchset that I've been rewriting since before the big ap.h
change to use an l_settings and other unrelated changes)

Best regards

Just leave that.  Your argument of 'l_rtnl_address doesn't store the ifindex' is 
fair.  I would have solved this differently, but in the end implementation 
details are just that.

What I care about is the API, get that right and you can fix the rest later.

And I get that.  I feel your pain.  But then, we're adding a new module and I do 
want the APIs to be at least somewhat sorted from the very beginning.
